Tamplin, who is a born-again Christian, will likely answer questions from the FA over the tweet, which was deleted a few hours after it was posted.

In a separate tweet, Tamplin claimed: "I may be a born again Christian but that don't make me a door mat."

The FA have already given Tamplin a stern warning over his social media conduct.

He was criticised for replying to his "muggy haters" with a tweet containing phone numbers for organisations such as the Samaritans.

Tamplin has also been known to offer bets to those who criticise his work at the football club.

Billericay aim to reach the Football League under Tamplin's stewardship.

Since appointing himself as manager of the non-league hotshots, they have had former Premier League stars such as Paul Konchesky, Jamie O'Hara and Jermaine Pennant represent them.

Following defeat to Kingstonian on the opening day of the season, Tamplin tweeted: "To all my BTFC fans. To all the muggy keyboard warrior haters. LOOK HARD AT THIS. It's going to happen at BTFC 200%."

Tamplin shot to viral fame at the end of last season when he got his team to sing R Kelly's 'World's Greatest' in the changing room before a cup final.

A spokesman for Billericay says that Tamplin regrets the comment, admits that he should not have reacted as he did and has subsequently removed the tweet.

Speaking in a statement to Mirror Online, Mr Tamplin said: "I shouldn’t have said what I did, but, I have been trolled and abused by this man and many others for months

"The sensible thing which I do daily is to block these individuals and I have blocked thousands of others

"Three in five are hate messages attacking me personally or my family and sometimes it’s as low as stuff about sleeping with my wife, and vile abuse against my Mother.

"What human being wouldn’t react to hate messages now and then? I tried to commit suicide years ago myself and have employed eight street pastors at Billericay Town FC to help kids with depression because I know how desperate it can be for youngsters.

"All I am guilty of doing is building a football club, bringing the local community together, employing good footballers and providing jobs and helping children with disabilities

"I’m a good man and I help others, my heart and soul is in BTFC and yet I’m meant to accept abuse and not retaliate.

"I’m the kind of bloke who isn’t in the business of criticising or running other people down.
